Question

A car travels at an average speed of 40km/h for 2.2 hours how far did the car travel in km

Answer 1

speed=distance/travel time

distance=2*40+60*3=80+180=260 km

travel time=2+3=5 hrs

Average speed during entire journey=260/5=52 km/h

Answer 2

88km

Explanation:

If a car travels 40 km in 1 hour, then that same car would travel 40*2.2 km in 2.2 hours.

So, the car travelled 88km in 2.2 hours

Remember that speed is a rate!
